We loved our all too brief stay at the Dunedin Guest House. Perfectly situated only a short walk from both seaside and the town centre in quiet Alexandra Road, it was a welcome haven to return to after a day’s touring g. The breakfast is generous and Sheleen & Duncan are wonderfully warm and welcoming hosts, with excellent travel advice - even so thoughtful as to produce cushions for our visit to the Minack Theatre. Thanks for a perfect stay! Highly recommended.

What a lovely stay at this lovely traditional guest house. The owner-managers were so incredibly helpful and friendly and happy to share their extensive local knowledge. Duncan arranged taxis for us and gave us plenty of good advice on our trips, particularly to the marvellous Minack open air theatre. Dunedin is well located a short walk from the sea front and in the other direction across a lovely park to the town centre. The area is well served by buses. Our room was traditionally furnished but with a nice new bathroom and was very comfortable. Breakfasts are wonderfully well cooked. We strongly recommend Dunedin

Duncan and Shaline are the kind of hosts you'd love to have on your travels. Duncan makes you feel so welcome and very much at home soon as you arrive. Shaline does the same at breakfast time. My single en suite room was somewhat tiny but was otherwise very clean and comfortable. It was at the top floor and had a skylight window which makes it feel larger. There are coffee and tea making facilities in the room. A small fridge is available on request. The English breakfast, full or partial, is delicious. It's about a 20-minute walk from the train (and main bus) station and is very near the town centre. A variety of restaurants are within 10 minutes on foot. If you have a car, there are enough spots available for parking on the street in front of the guest house.

Welcoming hosts, comfy room, brilliant base for a fishing weekend and town exploring ( me!) Going back this month, September. Penzance is my favourite place to chill, and this guest house fits the bill .

This guest house ticks all the boxes. We were warmly welcomed by Duncan who has excellent local knowledge. Our room was not huge but big enough with lots of thoughtful and unexpected features - a fridge, wine glasses. It was spotlessly clean. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of hot water. Breakfast was f8reshly cooked with high quality ingredients. What more could we ask for.? We would highly recommend a stay at Dunedin Guest House.

I spent a wonderful week at the Dunedin. Duncan and Shaline could not have been kinder or more helpful. I even got a text before I arrived to say I could check-in early. Duncan was frequently using their dryer for the wet clothing of those who got caught in the heavy rain while out walking. He is a fount of local knowledge having grown up in Penzance. My room was cleaned everyday and everywhere was immaculate. I will certainly return and would highly recommend.

We were a group of 3. The room we had was sub-divided with a section with a single bed and a second bigger section with a double bed. The location is great being a few minutes walk from the main esplanade with its restaurants and pubs. The breakfast menu is excellent with something for everyone. The full english was excellent and there was a selection of cereals, fruit and yogurt as well. Our en suite was small but adequate, loads of lovely thick towels changed every day.
